The fast-growing field of developmental biology provides a unifying framework that integrates anatomy, physiology, genetics, biochemistry, cellular and molecular biology, as well as evolutionary biology. The number of "reference" publications that deal specifically with the practical aspects of experimental developmental biology are relatively scarce. Developmental Biology Protocols grows out of this need for a comprehensive laboratory manual that provides the readers with the principles, background, rationale, as well as practical protocols, for studying and analyzing the events of embryonic development. Its highly practical format and wide range of model systems and multidisciplinary experimental techniques attest to the authors' determination to provide a balanced presentation of both background information and actual laboratory details. This three-volume compilation of relevant and useful information will be a well-utilized resource for both the students and teachers of developmental biology at all levels. Developmental Biology Protocols offers the most comprehensive, cutting-edge collection of contemporary experimental methods available for the study of embryogenesis and development. Written by an interdisciplinary team of leading scientific investigators, this authoritative collection provides step-by-step instructions for successful laboratory execution. Topics range from animal model system acquisition to molecular genetics, and include high resolution imaging, transgenesis, teratology, comparative anatomy and embryology, the characterization of embryonic structure and function, the analysis of cell function, and the regulation of gene activity. In addition to many unique, new experimental protocols, the authors have also utilized a host of experimental approaches used in other disciplines applicable to the study of development. Comprehensive and richly annotated, Developmental Biology Protocols constitutes the gold-standard reference for today's developmental biologists.

Developmental biology is one of the most exciting and fast-growing fields today. In part, this is so because the subject matter deals with the innately fascinating biological events—changes in form, structure, and function of the organism. The other reason for much of the excitement in developmental biology is that the field has truly become the unifying melting pot of biology, and provides a framework that integrates anatomy, physiology, genetics, biochemistry, and cellular and molecular biology, as well as evolutionary biology. No longer is the study of embryonic development merely “embryology.” In fact, development biology has produced important paradigms for both basic and clinical biomedical sciences. Though modern developmental biology has its roots in “experimental embry- ogy” and the even more classical “chemical embryology,” the recent explosive and remarkable advances in developmental biology are critically linked to the advent of the “cellular and molecular biology revolution.” The impressive arsenal of expe- mental and analytical tools derived from cell and molecular biology, which promise to continue to expand, together with the exponentially developing sophistication in fu- tional imaging and information technologies, guarantee that the study of the devel- ing embryo will contribute one of the most captivating areas of biological research in the next millennium.
